Basic information on track size and characterisitics of the local sea turtle nesting populations was gathered so that track counts could be done in the absence of adult animals. From 1998 to 2005 counts of the regional distribution of nesting turtle tracks within the Lowendal, Montebello and Barrow Islands were documented and used as an indicator of nesting effort.
